I finally got enuff snow to go for a ride. Wondering what i should expect from a stock 1998 mm 700? At around 90 mph it would be around 9000 rmp. I didnt hold it like like that for long.
Too high for a stock 700, you are way out of the powerband.
Are you using a 8DN belt ? If so, you need heavier rivets in the tip.
Just for an example, buddy has a stock 1997 700 SX, he changed rollers to 14.5(more belt pressure), put the heaviest rivets in both holes with a washer added to tip. He still runs 8500 or so, but he has a silencer, thinned head gasket, and gutted air box with the 8DN belt.

What elevation are running?
Peak rpm should be around 8600.
Do you have rivets in both holes in the primary weights?

8300 is peak rpm for a stock 700 just FYI.
9100 to 9200 is ok with PSI triple pipes---spun my 97 700sx at 9200 for 5000 miles---- but like said above not with stock single pipe
